Sometimes The Truth Hurts
Elizabeth has a complaint:
It is too difficult to read your blog with that butt-ugly picture on the top of the page!!!!!
And she's not the only one having issues with the photo. Even the normally stout hearted Warrior Monk from Spitbull is getting creeped out by the smirking inebriate.
Those of you who don't recognize the mug, or were too put off by its appearance to follow our link to the story behind the photo, may be surprised to know that it is none other than Katherine Lanpher, radio co-host with Al Franken on Air America. Mitch Berg has more on that connection over at Shot in the Dark.
For those of you offended by the picture, we're sorry. Actually we're not sorry. As Saint Paul so eloquently put it, all we can say is that our commitment is to the truth, and sometimes that ain't pretty. Sometimes it is butt ugly. Maybe Elizabeth should consider herself lucky we don't have a picture of Lanpher's ass on the masthead. Now that would be some difficult reading. And maybe a violation of the Geneva convention on torture.
